Upon mting out in Newcomerstown, we were sent r next load assignment that was 2 get us back 2 the Midwest so we might attend r youngest grandson’s award banquet & r little great-grandson’s 1st b.d. over the wknd & enjoy a little home time.

This time r shpr was located in Maple Heights, OH, a southern suburb of Cleveland. There we picked up 42,000#’s of mt Apple Jacks boxes fr Logistics Partners—a division of Smurfit-Stone, 2 take 2 Kelloggs USA in Omaha, NE, a little over 800 mi 2 the west. A bit of trivia 2 enable the reader 2 figure just how many Apple Jack cartons we had on board—every 1,000 cartons accounted for 201#s. The load was 2 b dlvd anytime on Fri, the 28th. Despite stopping 4 the nite en rt, we elected 2 dlv it already Thurs nite, b4 heading home 4 the wknd.
